I have older bow that would make an excellent 1st bow for someone just starting out in traditional archery.  It is a Bear Minuteman takedown recurve.  60 inches long, 45# at 28" draw, aluminum riser, new string.  It is in excellent condition and shoots well.  

Here is the catch.  It must go to someone who is new to the sport.  After you are done with it, or move on to a better bow, you must pass it on to another archer along with the same conditions to the giveaway.  

Winner will either pick the bow up at my place (Wasilla, AK) or pay for shipping.

Let me know if you are interested.  If there is more that one archer interested, I will randomly select someone later in the week.

I have a friend who has lost everything and is about to move in with me. I got him started in trad archery a month ago and he would be thrilled to have your bow.

My wife is talking about getting in to trad bows. She has a wheelie bow now.

Hey Dan
Please add my wife into the names. This would be great to get her into shooting. That way we can make it a family event with our two kids.

Thanks
Sean

I would like to get my wife started.

Thank you,

My neighbor Pat, who's just lost his job and has spoken about his desire to shoot with me for quite some time.

THANKS!

I'll go ahead and enter my buddies name in the hat. He's been talking about switching over and could use a little push.
his name is Jason Shafer.
THANKS! Kris

:clapper  I'll enter my newest convert...my daughter in law Erica.....thanks

Ill enter my cousin Dayne...with a kid on the way he is having a hard time spendign the money on his first bow!  I brought him out hunting once and he loves it!

I got him a free climber now we are searching for a decent bow for him!

My step son Jake would love at a chance at that bow. He just started shooting one of my bows but wants his own and mine is too heavy for him. He said he wanted his own but cant afford one.
Thanks for the chance

Good on ya!!!

Is this a right handed or left handed bow?

My dad shoots lefty and I am really trying to get to to release the training wheels!

Nothing better than genuine compassion for others. Texas size heart Dan.

Looks like there are a couple of interested archers.  I will post the winner tomorrow night. - Dan

Sorry luv2bowhunt - the bow is right handed.

No Problem    I assumed that it was right handed.

Thanks for the generous offer that you are extending!  

Kevin.
